Catastrophe Theory and Urban Processes
Phenomena exhibiting discontinuous change, divergent processes, and hysteresis can be modelled w i t h catastrophe theory, a recent development in differential topology. Exposition of t h e theory is illustrated by qualitative interpretations of the appearance of functions i n central place systems, and of price cycles for urban housing. Catastrophe Theory and Urban Processes John Casti and Har...
متن کاملCatastrophe Archetypes
We propose an Integrated Systemic Theory of Catastrophes (ISTC) using System Dynamics to model and to understand common systemic structures and behaviours of catastrophes. Current catastrophe research concentrates on a specific field and does not capture complex multi-field catastrophe scenarios that cannot be reduced to a single scientific field. For example, when looking at famines the elemen...
متن کاملElectromechanical Catastrophe
A transducer is a system that couples two loads. For example, an electromechanical transducer couples a mechanical force and an electrical voltage. A two-load, nonlinear system can exhibit rich behavior of bifurcation, which can be displayed in a three-dimensional space, with the horizontal plane representing the two loads, and the vertical axis representing the state of the system. In this thr...
متن کاملDo Firms Manage Catastrophe and Non-Catastrophe Risks Differently?
Recent disasters and historical insurance payouts have triggered renewed interest in how firms manage their left-tail exposure. Using a unique dataset of fully described insurance policies purchased by large U.S. firms, we provide the first consistent estimates of premium elasticity of corporate demand for insurance for both catastrophe and noncatastrophe risks. We do so by combining this datas...
متن کاملCatastrophe of riddling
Most existing works on riddling assume that the underlying dynamical system possesses an invariant subspace. We find that, under arbitrarily small, deterministic perturbations, a riddled basin is typically destroyed and replaced by fractal ones, a catastrophe of riddling. We elucidate, based on analyzing unstable periodic orbits, the dynamical mechanism of the catastrophe. Analysis of the criti...
